Honey Butter Chicken
A delightful dish that combines the rich flavors of honey and butter with tender chicken, perfect for busy weeknights or special occasions.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless chicken thighs or breasts
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Preparation
- In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, and pepper.
- Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture.
Cooking
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Shallow fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Sauce Preparation
- In a separate saucepan, melt the butter and mix in the honey and garlic powder.

Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the honey mixture for a few hours before cooking. If you prefer a crispy coating, double dredge the chicken. Consider using an air fryer for a healthier version.
